A Time Machine

Never one without the other, we made a pact.

I still listen to this every once in a while. I don’t know how great we sound together, but he’s my other half. Love songs just seems a whole lot more personal, and it’s always nice to look back. I like singing this song, pronouncing word by word because it’s just great lyrics. We keep all our promises, be us against the world. It’s my first time doing the harmonizing especially in the second verse instead of the usual. I’m not as well trained as the boyfriend, but he’s a good teacher. You should see how I repeat one line after another going in and out of tune.We’re looking to hopefully make a new cover very soon. If we can find the time that is. Sometimes it makes me sad, but sometimes it makes me happy too. Music brings us together. The final product always feels like a reward.
